A lot of the "old school" vets won't do it until they are 6 mnths no matter the breed.
The rescue I volunteer with has almost all of their animals done btwn 8 wks and 12 wks and as far as I know they have never had a problem.
At the shelter I used to volunteer at in SC their vet did it at 8 wks. If the puppy was under 8 wks when a person adopted, they had to bring it back to the shelter at 8wks to get altered. If they didn't bring the dog back by 12 wks the shelter had the right to seize the dog. |
